The last northern white rhino died earlier this year-- with only two females left in captivity, the species is functionally extinct unless we can find an artificial method of bringing them back. We have done this to them, and we must do whatever we can to make it right.
I was thinking the same thing! I kind of think about it like the logging industry. They plant trees like crazy to keep their livelihood going. You'd think the poachers would be into conservation instead of hunting Rhinos til they're gone. Some loggers need to hook up with the rhino poachers and teach them their philosophy, so they can keep their trade without destroying their only income. I know hunting animals wouldn't be my first choice of solutions, but at least teach them how conservation could be in their best interest.
That is why the trade in horns should be legalized so more will farm them. Some already do farm them which is why the white rhino went from 50 to over 20k. But your logic only applies to those who think long term. Not everyone can and will invest in making things sustainable, there will always be parasites and opportunists.
The problem is that many probably aren't aware that the Rhinos are endangered. As she said in the video, many poachers are simply working men who kill them to earn money for their families.
The solution is get people out of poverty (which is a policy choice) and teach people not to trust alternative medicine because of the pseudoscience inherent to it.
some white guy 2000 because the more badass the animal the more prestige you get from killing it and is considered a feat of strength even though they are weak lazy bastards relying on rifles. screw the controversy poison the horns and let all of those who support the trade die thus eliminating the need to hunt these majestic beasts :)
Yeah. Imagine if we ever develop interstellar travel. Just _think_ of all the wonderful, amazing, truly awe-inspiring things we could drive into extinction. :(
At least videos like this gives us hope, if more people are conservation aware and there are better viable substitutions this would reduce our needs to hunt species to extinction. harmful/impactful superstition/traditions can be countered with eduction and technology. Hey, how many people who watch this video would be wiling to buy Rhino horns (or things containing Rhino parts)? I definitely wouldn't. We are the best species at putting other species to extinction, I agree and except that, but I also believe we can be the best species to protect and restore even lost species.
+Tony Rideg i know it's horrible I always say to my friends that I want to do something about that and when I found out scientists are putting GPS's in rhino horns it made my day
I discovered this chanel like 3 days ago, I banged EVERY SINGLE EPISODE! Love this series! also do the next episode on the Slow Loris the cutest primate :D they are endangered and need some love and awareness!
Wooow that last bit was priceless!!! Awww! Loved how informative this was too. I had no clue the white rhino was that far gone on the endangered species list!
Could you please do a video about the Amur leopard. It is believed that there is less than 70 or around 45 left in the wild. They live around the borders of Russia Far East and north east China in a range less than 2,500 square KM. That's an area smaller than Dorset. The Amur leopard is critically endangered and is one of the rarest big cats.
I remember reading an article talking about scientists taking off the horns, all the way down so there is no way to poach the horns. It is still hunted as you said for revenge, but it has still helped with them
I found this channel by watching the video about the mane wolf, i have spent the last two hours watching your videos. I love animals, and this channel is just great. This episode was just heartrending, keep up the excellent content, you educate and make people aware of how bad we are treating our world, but also you make people aware that not everything is lost and that there are a lot of people dedicated to trying to save nature's creations.
If I had the power to, I would make poaching of endangered animals carry life in prison as a punishment. Edit: At least three years have passed since I made this comment. Now I understand that people are a product of their circumstances.
Or strip the poacher naked, leaving him/her with nothing and having them placed in the wild, put a cash reward for killing them so other poachers or just other people will hunt the poacher. See how they like being a commodity.
I feel pitty for the rhinos They're the only remaining animal that has a horn , not antlers , not spikes , not thumb spike. But also shame on these poachers , they kill these animals , and they think that its a cure for cancer and etc. Also i wont even say about these poor family.
We really should Jurassic Park more Rhinos. What is the status of the project anyway? I mean, we've been hearing about it, but haven't heard about the results. We need to clone more endangered animals.
fr, The problem with cloning is that all the artificially made rhinos will have the same genetic make up resulting with no genetic variation amongst species which makes the population really vulnerable.
I work with rhinos and have several vials of rhino horn....because they rub their horn on trees and the shavings fall off, its just like trimming our nails :P
I heard somewhere that certain poaching bands have stockpiled horns and are trying to make the species extinct so their supply is the last and prices skyrocket.
I heard that human scrotum jerky spiced with ghost peppers and marinated in cyanide cures cancer, the common cold AND ALSO CORONA VIRUS OWO But let’s not forget about the neurocranium~!!! That snorted up before alcohol negates the effects of a hangover!!!’
My heart 💔😢 I love the rhino animals/beasts. They are really sweet and family oriented. We have a black rhino here in a small animal zoo "rescue ", kinda park. He's so sweet yet I see he's severely depressed. I'm from Washington the west coast. They don't belong in a small gage alone here.
This was hard to watch. It made me feel a little sick. I just don't understand how some people can be so hardhearted. I don't even want to understand that mindset. It's as horrible as killing off sharks to make shark fin soup, meanwhile the oceans are overpopulating with the Humboldt squid. I _almost_ don't even care about the guy trying to feed his family because humans are so plentiful that one dead poacher would hardly make a difference to our population. I can't even believe I'm saying this, but dead poachers might even be worth it to save the environment for our future generations. Ok, no, sorry, sanity has returned... What I actually would like to see is poachers being taught conservation efforts to keep their trade. If they wipe out the rhinos, their trade will be gone. Same thing with sharks. Farm, don't poach.
Mirror's Light Well, well, well.. look what we have here, a human who claims to be passionate and caring about other species. The fact that you used a WiFi signal to send ur comment, probably affected a spider or an ant at your place. :@
Natty S Speaking for me now? No, I just don't do a lot of self loathing, not much hate for myself and my kind. I don't identify with such pathologies. If you see humans as all bad, you might be projecting or biased by a bad personal life. No family or friends or anybody worthy of being seen as good in your life? Check out Animal Wonders here on YT for some good people examples on a related channel.
Wow, thank you for this video :). I always wondered about the English names of the rhinos. In German, we call the white rhino „Breitmaulnashorn“, which means „wide-mouth-rhino“ and the black rhino „Spitzmaulnashorn“, which stands for „pointed-mouth-rhino“. Now it makes sense!
7:54 "Save a horse, ride a cowboy." That kind of a conservation effort just might work. If they can get cowboys who look like Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal, I'm certain a lot of women (and some men) would donate to take part in such a charitable event.
Thank you for acknowledging that poachers are often just really poor people acting out of desperation. So many people just paint them like these movie supervillains which doesn't really help anything
I love the people here in the comments enthusiastically requesting more videos on animals they love and want to know more about. it warms my heart to see so many people interested in all the life around them.

shit happens, new animals will come through
its just evolution mane
ProductionBandit do you even know what your talking about
They have a plan. They have plenty of sperm and eggs, and will use a southern white rhino to birth it
ProductionBandit Are your mum and your sister the same person?
You are one of the dumbest humans I've seen so far.
I feel like SOME poachers forget that if they hunt these animals to extinction, their business is finished and the money will stop.

Forget? more like not know at all
I love how you don't just mention the poaching issues with rhinos but talk about the solutions. Important stuff, great video!
The solution is get people out of poverty (which is a policy choice) and teach people not to trust alternative medicine because of the pseudoscience inherent to it.
If a human wants keratin so bad for its “medicinal power” they should just rip off all their finger and toe nails and use that 🙃🙃
Yeah just let their nails grow long and cut it boom!
YES. It may be disgusting but it's pretty much the same thing in the horns.. Find magic in your fingernails!
@@yvesroicaliboso3093 ikr those idiots
I'm surprised they haven't gone after people with long nails.

And cloven hooves and beards.

Pretty sure that rhino's got curves.
WHY DO ALL THE BADASS ANIMALS DIE!?
to many people in the world but no one has to die.
so many baby are being born. the world is already over populated.
some white guy 2000 because the more badass the animal the more prestige you get from killing it and is considered a feat of strength even though they are weak lazy bastards relying on rifles.
screw the controversy poison the horns and let all of those who support the trade die thus eliminating the need to hunt these majestic beasts :)
The Destroyer because man is the most corrupt of creatures .

But I think they can survive in zoos
Poachers kill something else and superstitious morons who wanted the "magic" forget it ever existed.

He's so sweet yet I see he's severely depressed.
I'm from Washington the west coast. They don't belong in a small gage alone here.
So, I could save up my toenails & fingernails, grind them up, & sell them on the black market as rhino horn? That seems satisfying, somehow...
What happened to their videos? Why are they no longer posting more vids? Did they lose funding or something? So many questions...
This was hard to watch. It made me feel a little sick. I just don't understand how some people can be so hardhearted. I don't even want to understand that mindset.
